I currrently have 18" Michelin mxv4 energy tires, and get 19mpg city and highway driving. I need to replace my tires, and don't want to lose mpg. Looking into Bridgestone Dueler H/L Alenzas, Michelin Cross Terrain or the same Michelin mxv4 tires. Any advice would be appreciated.

the best thing to help mpg when choosing tires is a low rolling resistance and lightweight tire. someting with close together small tread blocks, high treadwear rating(harder rubber compound) combined with light weight will make a difference. you can usually find the tire weights on the mfr. websites.

 

You will lose a little MPG with the cross terrains, maybe a 1/2 MPG and with the Alenzas maybe another 1/2 MPG on top of that. What you will gain is wet and snow traction. I would go with the Cross Terrain.
